Blue screen of death

My computer has decided, for whatever reason, to start blue-screening. It's been going on for at least a week now — I get logged in, start doing something, then the computer reboots and freezes. No viruses, no trojans, cleaned out the malware I could find, ran HijackThis and things look clean, but still having problems. I just spent the last 4-1/2 hours backing up everything on my hard drive. If I have to do a full reinstall, I think I'll go with Windows 7. I have RC1 and have heard good things about it (most people hate Vista, and I'm not crazy about it as an OS myself). We shall see.

Queenee is back from PA, where she went to two family get-togethers: one for the Hamilton family (Uncle Donald's family) and one for her cousins. She said she had a great time at both and was glad she was able to go. We'll get the updated health reports on Uncle M/Aunt F soon. Uncle Ed is doing well and went to the cousins' party with Queenee and Aunt D.

There are three young robins hanging around this corner of the house. They like the arborvitae and the redbud tree and are still learning to fly. They keep their parents busy with regular feedings. It's fun watching them. I have photos and will get them linked in asap.
